What is wrong
THE BRAKE PEDAL TO PEDAL PUSHROD PREVAILING TORQUE NUT ATTACHMENT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ADEQUATELY TIGHTENED DURING ASSEMBLY AND MAY LOOSEN IN SERVICE. THE NUT COULD DISENGAGE FROM THE PUSHROD BOLT ALLOWING THE PUSHROD TO SEPARATE FROM THE PEDAL. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM TO BECOME INOPERATIVE.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
